Fall 2020 Group Meeting Update
At this time, ECOG-ACRIN still plans to host its in-person Fall 2020 Group Meeting in Fort Lauderdale, Florida from Wednesday, October 21 – Friday, October 23. However, due to the evolving and unpredictable nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are making preparations to hold the meeting virtually, if needed. When booking travel, please be sure to choose the most flexible option so that you may cancel without penalty. We will be relaying changes to the status of the Fall Group Meeting in a timely manner. Thank you for your understanding as we navigate this challenging situation.
